Previous Projects

Privacy Skills: Learning how to protect your privacy online is a complex set of overlapping social and technical skills. Where and how do people actually learn these skills?

However, the distribution of who contributes and how remains unequal. Are privacy concerns around having personal information stolen online a potential factor to help explain this unequal distribution?
